I don't know why everyone dislikes Wimmer so much.

Our previous manager was just a clown , end of.

Great news, a great asset at RB & LB - Love his statement “I’ve got a big smile on my face,” Koutroumbis added. “I’m so happy to stay at this club at a time when it’s going in an exciting direction. Everything is in such a good place, and there is a lot of potential for us going forward.“

Yup, happy with that

Good news on Johnny K. Hope there is more to follow as we get towards the end of the season, and not too much waiting around for offer acceptances.

Brilliant he has decided to stay. Our previous manager was a clown to freeze him out. Johnny's been missed of late. He is defensively our best right back. He reads the game well and theres scope for improvement going forward.

Is that a sign that JBA might be staying? I’m hoping he is waiting to cement a place in Europe amd then commit to Another season

Fantastic news really like Johnny think he has been really good for us getting forward and been pretty consistent aswell.

Agree - he’s proven to be a very decent player - we’ve certainly missed him in the last month or so

Johnny Koutroumbis has signed a new 2 year deal. A good bit of business.

Maybe we’ll see a rejuvenated JT grab a few goals.

It's difficult to predict how they will react, especially if Falkirk are instructed to by Mr McGlynn to make the most of our tackles. The authorities are just as likely to regard J-B's pre-match comments about consistency as a bit uppity coming from a diddy team like wot we are and really rub our noses in it. On top of that we have the likely VAR intervention to spoil the game further and increase our frustration. I noticed our manager referred to Said's disallowed goal in the last home game against Falkirk again and wondered if it was wise in the circumstances.

Falkirk have done very well this season so it would be churlish of me to suggest otherwise, but yes you're right, they have enjoyed a fair measure of good luck not just against us but against many other sides. Many 50/50s have gone in their favour, so for that reason alone they can't be underestimated. The match officials will be under special scrutiny given recent events.

Dont think being sussed has anything to do with it. We have been the better team on both previous games. They have had the lucky breaks when it mattered. Hopefully this time we get those breaks. I also dont expect to get many favours from the officials.

On paper, at least, probably the most intriguing game of the season so far. So many factors at play here. We're playing the best best football we have done for decades We're sitting in 4th spot Amazing home record Excellent defensive record We haven't beaten Falkirk in 2 attempts so far Falkirk are one of the few teams to have beaten us. Falkirk are having an amazing season having just been promoted Has John McGlynn sussed us out? Both teams seem to be running out of steam (McGlynn has previous for this) The game is unlikely to be a classic but any one of 3 outcomes wouldn't be a surprise, but the most likely one is a draw. Here's hoping for a bumper crowd.

I got lazy

That's a lot of post split draws!

Hoping we win and all other top 6 teams drop points amd that’s it pretty much till end of season.

Fuk all that crap . On to the game on Saturday. A 2-0 win for the good guys after a relaxing two weeks, apart from Just who will be knackered after 65 min.

I guess it is about fairness no matter what club is involved. And the Slattery situation is annoying given it should have been dealt with on the night. No argument about that. Believe me I am annoyed as well as we will miss him when we need him most. The thing that also annoys me though is that a good few on here (not saying that includes you) are playing the victim card...poor wee Motherwell, this would not happen to a big club.... and in doing so are losing sight of what actually happened. Almost turning Slattery into a Martyr.. He isn't. He did a stupid thing and got caught after the fact. Got punished. Same as others, albeit pre VAR. For me that failing of VAR is the big issue the authorities should be dealing with. The ineptitude of their own officials. I think we are all agreed on that? Folk also have a concern about the delay in the matter being dealt with. Seems a fair point on the face of it. Again that aspect is annoying. But if Motherwell had accepted the punishment when cited, the ban could have come into play right away. Dundee and Hibs? By contesting a charge and seeking a hearing, a Club is given two weeks to gather video evidence and witnesses in support of their case whilst the Authorities put together a Panel. Motherwell opted to fight the accusation, and many will agree they were correct to do so, but that may have added to the delay. That's my understanding anyway, looking to the procedures followed in the past. Anyway, thanks heavens there is a game coming up in a few days. We can move on and hopefully get a much needed boost, particularly having suffered through Steve Clarke's latest delivery of fearful football and games for the boys.

I get that you are trying to beat the drum for impartiality and fairness and I commend you for it. But we dont live in an ideal world. We all know this. So until we do, I think its fair enough to be annoyed.....
